qsy-complains-a-lot:French Senegalese skirmisher’s ‘Coupe-coupe’The standard-issue machete of French Colonial infantry during both World Wars, made c.1939.That looks like a pretty efficient trench weapon.French 53ème RIC soldiers, with the second man from the left wearing a coupe-coupe.I had an Awesome machete in my late teens, and my uncle took it from me when I moved down south for him to rehabilitate me. I wonder if he still has it. I’m sure that he used it plenty, because my machete was way better than the machete that he had me use to clear the bush around a house that we were renovating. I love it when I come across a post that makes me remember. Tumblr is truly a therapeutic tool that I’m glad is available to me. -- source link
